Geezer Dude/Geezer George - I dunno! And, I think Grace is a lovely name for our number 3 sis!<br /><br />Epiphanygirl - thanks for chiming in here. I'm glad this little post was of interest to you.

K & I didn't learn about that first "running for the bus" incident until this past fall when I had the good fortune to connect with an old friend of my mother and dad's in their young married life. She casually mentioned the miscarriage in recalling her time living with our parents. I was so surprised. Of course, I was present to know of the Dianna Woolleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11901349180265745138noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17699332.post-62034323519660352732010-01-03T09:13:49.305-08:002010-01-03T09:13:49.305-08:00When my brother died in May, I hesitated for the s...When my brother died in May, I hesitated for the shortest moment and then included mention in his obit of the two babies of the nine my mother had who died in infancy. One was a boy who came home and lived but a few months and one was a girl, stillborn.

I understand that mum had two or three miscarriages but she never ever spoke of it. In fact I think it may have been my father who told me, in the context of how much they longed for me to come along. (He was a great dad!) <Tesshttp://www.anchormast.comnoreply@blogger.com
